The Military Kingdom of Xvio is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by King General Neven Rosolas with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, anti-smoking policies, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 4.842 billion Xvioans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The minute, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Riloav. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Xvioan economy, worth 973 trillion Xvioian Krills a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. Average income is an amazing 201,031 Xvioian Krills, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,593,487 per year while the poor average 6,134, a ratio of 259 to 1.

Wounded veterans can only get prosthetics if they agree to become walking billboards for the arms industry, crime suspects are forced to submit to blood testing, summer science camps are regularly raided by narcotics police, and Xvio is increasingly belligerent on the international stage. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Xvio's national animal is the Xvioian Dryaid, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Rarksafarionism.

Xvio is ranked 330,942nd in the world and 27th in Patriam for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -37.55 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
